Fresh frozen plasma therapy for substitution of coagulation factors in 4 horses with haemoperitoneum

Coagulation Factors Level in Fresh Frozen Plasma in Rwanda.

UNLABELLED Objectives: To determine the level of coagulation factors and inherited inhibitors in Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) and to evaluate Prothrombin Time and activated partial thrombin time in fresh frozen plasma. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology in Medical Laboratory Sciences. SUBJECTS Eighteen blood bags collected from volunt...

Inappropriateness of fresh frozen plasma for abnormal coagulation tests.

BACKGROUND There is increasing evidence to suggest that the use of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) as a prophylaxis to bleeding is ineffective. However, a high proportion of FFP transfusions still occur in non-bleeding patients despite the high risk of adverse events. The aim of the study was to assess compliance with current prophylactic FFP guidelines at a large tertiary centre. METHODS Data were...

Impacts of leukocyte filtration and irradiation on coagulation factors in fresh frozen plasma

This study aimed to compare and analyze the changes in the coagulation factors in fresh frozen plasma (FFP) prior to and following leukocyte filtration and irradiation. In total, 30 bags of FFP from healthy donors were processed: One-third of the FFP of each bag was left within the original bag (the A group), the other two-thirds of the FFP of each bag were passed through a disposable leukocyte...

Technical method. Fresh frozen cryosupernatant in place of fresh frozen plasma for broad spectrum coagulation factor replacement.

The Effect of Methylene Blue in Combination with Red Visible Light on Model Viruses Inactivation and Coagulation Factors in Fresh Frozen Plasma

Background and Aims: Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) is one of blood components. The risk of transmission of viruses from blood components regardless selection of blood donors and screening donated blood still remains. There are several methods for viral inactivation. In this study methylene blue (MB) photo inactivation process was used for inactivating viruses. Materials and Methods: In this study M...
